This is a 'latent painting', a digital artwork forged in the latent space of an artificial intelligence neural network model.

To create this model, thousands of variations of a single AI generated artwork are first created, all similar with slight mutations. This dataset of images is then trained for hundreds of hours into the final model.

This final model, also called a GAN (Generative Adversarial Network), can replicate an infinite amount of 'new' paintings based on the dataset it was trained on, and we can traverse its multi-dimensional latent space to create interpolation animation.

It's this kind of animation, moving through latent space, which offers a new way to experience the infinite facets and nuanced viewpoints of a single artwork in space and time.

Only three variations of 'Relic' will be created.
